Residual risks
Even if you use this electric power tool in
accordance with instructions, certain resi-
dual risks cannot be rules out. The following
hazards may arise in connection with the
equipment's construction and layout:
1. Lung damage if no suitable protective dust
mask is used.
2. Damage to hearing if no suitable ear protec-

5. Before starting the equipment
Before you connect the equipment to the mains
supply make sure that the data on the rating plate
are identical to the mains data.
Warning!
Always pull the power plug before making
adjustments to the equipment.
The lawn mower is delivered unassembled. The
complete push bar, the wheels and the catch bas-
ket must be fi tted before using the lawn mower.
Follow the operating instructions step-by-step
and use the pictures provided as a visual guide to
easily assemble the equipment.
Fitting the push bar (Fig. 3a to 3d)
Fit a bottom push bar (Fig. 3a/Item 5) into the
opening provided for it (Fig. 3a) and secure it with
the fastening screw for the bottom push bar (fi g.
3b/Item 9) as shown in Fig. 3b. Proceed in the
same way on the other side.
When you fi t the top push bar you can decide the
height of the push bar by selecting the appropri-
ate fastening hole (Fig. 3c). Fasten the top push

bar using either the holes L for a low position or H
for a high position. To do so, fasten the top push
bar to the bottom push bar with a fastening screw
for the top push bar (Fig. 3d/Item 10).
Mounting the catch basket (Fig. 4a to 4d)
First, press the catch basket handle (Item 8) into
the openings on the top half of the catch basket
housing (Item 13). Then fi t the two halves of the
catch basket housing (Fig. 4b/Item13) together.
Ensure that all the plastic lugs engage correctly.
Before you fi t the catch basket you must ensure
that the motor is switched off and the blade is
not rotating any more. The catch basket must be
attached to the two hooks on the mower (Fig.
4c/Item A). To do this, open the ejector fl ap with
one hand (Fig. 4d/Item 14) and attach the catch
basket with the other hand as shown in Figure 4d.
The ejector fl ap is held against the grass box by
a spring.
Filling level indicator of the grass collector
The grass collector is equipped with a fi lling level
indicator (Fig. 2/Item 15) which is opened by the
airfl ow that the lawn mower generates during ope-
ration. If the fl ap closes during mowing, the grass
collecting device is full and must be emptied. To
ensure the proper functioning of the fi lling level
indicator, the holes under the fl ap must always be
kept clean and passable.
Fitting the wheels (5a to 5d)
Insert the fastening screw in the wheels together
with the wheel caps (Fig. 5a). Then fi t the supplied
washers, spring washers and locking rings to the
screw (Fig. 5b). Make sure you do this in the cor-
rect sequence! Fit the four wheels by turning the
wheel caps clockwise to tighten them (Fig. 5c). Fit
all four wheels in the same position (Fig. 5d).
Adjusting the cutting height
Caution!
Adjust the cutting height only when the motor is
switched off and the power cable has been dis-
connected.
Before you begin to mow, check to ensure that the
blade is not blunt and that none of the fasteners
are damaged. To prevent any imbalance, replace
blunt and/or damaged blades. To carry out this
check, fi rst switch off the motor and pull out the
power plug.
The cutting height is adjusted as follows. Turn the
hub cap counter-clockwise to release the axle
